Friday, December 12
7:30 p.m.
Music Hall at Fair Park

Ralphie has a big imagination and one wish for Christmas. But uncommon and rather strange obstacles stand between Ralphie and his Christmas dream. Nominated for three 2013 Tony Awards including Best Musical, this classic 1983 movie is brought to hilarious life onstage at the Music Hall at Fair Park. Called “a joyous Christmas miracle,” by The Associated Press and receiving praises such as "I was dazzled. You'd have to have a Grinch-sized heart not to feel a smile spreading across your face," from The New York Times, this timeless performance will continue to be a holiday favorite for years and years to come.To purchase tickets, click here.
